- The following is a prophecy concerning Arabia.
- Arabs killed Jews with thirst: When the Jewish people were exiled and passed through the lands of their cousins in the Arabian lands, they asked to be greeted with jugs of water and bread due to being very thirsty due to the journey, in which they needed to flee from the sword that was devastating their land.
